Guild member Nancy Trejos kicked off the Washington Post Newspaper Guild’s new Outreach program with a book signing at Caribou Coffee down the street from the paper.

The program has been created to promote the talents of its members and raise the profile of the Guild. Future events will include more book signings and shows for Guild members to display paintings or photographs.

At the July 21st event, Trejos, a long-standing Guild member,  talked about her book “Hot (broke) Messes: How to Have Your Latte and Drink It, Too” and what prompted her to write on the subject — personal finance — at a time she was struggling with her own personal finances.

Trejos, a veteran Post reporter, has worked over the years at the paper in the Metro section,  the Baghdad bureau, the Real Estate section and the Business section. She is currently a travel writer.
